People in the comments seem to be arguing if this will or will not save lives. I don't really care if it does. I think it's ironic that there's a crowd of people arguing that human life is precious and we can't celebrate this guy's death when the guy in question is the antithesis of that philosophy; he dedicated his life to profiting off of the suffering of others. I'm glad to see him go. There are many more I wish would follow.
Regardless of if it saves lives, if hopefully means those at the top of these murder companies never sleep another night peacefully again, always looking over their shoulder, always wondering when it’s their time to meet their maker for their misdeeds.
This guy is a fucking hero.
Lol, they will just have more private security now and guess who's going to pay for it? I can assure you it won't be coming out of their own compensation packages.
Boo fucking hoo. Hope this is the first of many.
I think you completely missed what I was saying. This will be the last, and we're going to pay for the security that makes that possible.
These people aren’t untouchable. Even with security.
We’re paying to be the worlds policeman with our sham “democracy” so I don’t really give a fuck that it’s gonna cost us more. We’re already being anally raped sans lube for “security” for Americas corporate interests worldwide.
Ukrainian drone footage supports your point
Even prior to the drones, suicide bombers have been doing it for decades
Sure, but now people don't have to kill themselves to do it. I also anticipate the difficulty of finding an attacker will be higher when it's not a person on camera with a gun.
It's not about removing the ultra wealthy. It's about scaring them with consequences.
